An inquisitive artist has photoshopped penguins and seals together to create disturbingly cute creatures.

Ever wondered what a seal pup would look like with a beak or what a baby emperor penguin might look like with whiskers? Well wonder no more.

Serial hybrid animal creator Sarah Lee DeRemer came up with the idea after viewing the recent videos of seals mating with penguins.

The 25-year-old from Los Angeles, USA, said: “Given the awful news stories of penguins being raped by fur seals, I felt it my hybridizing obligation to explore the hypothetical offspring of these assaults.”

Disturbing or cute?
